In memory of Dr. Samuel D. Faust It is with great sorrow, and pride, that this project is brought to fruition. Dr. Samuel D. Faust, who passed away on February 7, 1997, gave a vote of confidence when he decided that the second edition of Chemistry of Water Treatment would be published by our company. His book, written with co-author Dr. Osman Aly, became an important addition to our company. I regret that Sam never saw the printed book. I have tried to publish it in a manner becoming of his dedication to the manuscript, and his commitment to the field. Robert (Skip) A. DeWall, Jr. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Once again, the authors wish to acknowledge the patience of our families who were neglected during die long hours of preparation.
